Hi and welcome to the channel
In todays video I taken on the challenge of building several overhead storage cabinets, I'm by no means a joiner or cabinet maker as you will see but I believe I have created some more than acceptable modern looking cabinets they are not perfect by any means but for my first attempt I'm more than pleased with the results have a look for yourself
The furniture boards and cabinets aluminium trims were purchased from Moorland UK

How many sheets of the furniture board did you use for your build, Sam? Love the overall finished look.

I would like to say 3 full sheets but considering I have purchased 6 in total that wouldn't be totally honest it works out that to be economical I had to use pieces from a few boards as I ripped them down I would mark up the off cuts as potential parts for the build to reduce wastage so 3 is a good estimate but made up of off cuts mainly 👍

@@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife Cheers. I plan on templating all the parts into 4mm ply first which I get cheap being a floorlayer. Once I have all the ply templates I'll transfer them over to the furniture board. My thinking is that if I end up building a second for a family member I'll already have the templates needed for the furniture build. Loved the way you used it over the bulkhead, top class look.
Hey, the cabinet is only attached to the side wall or also to the ceiling. Greetings from Berlin
